trans-o-flex Schnell-Lieferdienst has now introduced a radiating independent network for express overnight transportation that adds to the company’s existing regular traffic operations in Germany. This “plus-Stern” accelerates overnight transportation, thus further increasing the reliability of the trans-o-flex plus services, which combine late pick-up with early delivery until 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. on the next working day.
Within the scope of the “plus-Stern” service, additional delivery vans will be used on special night routes. “The new express network will not only optimise our interfaces but also facilitates decisive time savings, which will allow us to ensure the in-time delivery of particularly urgent shipments to the depots”, explains Frank Iden, who has been CEO of trans-o-flex since February. “This step is a purposeful and targeted investment in the quality of our services because this is how we want to stand out against our competitors.” In addition to the plus services, the standard shipments also benefit from the additional sprinter network, because the standard network is relieved of the load caused by critical express shipments. With trans-o-flex’ co2de green program, customers are given the possibility to compensate for the higher CO2 emissions per shipment associated with faster transport in smaller vehicles. To this end, the company calculates for every customer the emissions per shipment and, upon the customers' request, invests in certified environmental protection projects, in which CO2 emissions are provably reduced.
